Three Engagement Models

Choose how you want to work with us.

Every firm is different. Keep The Client™ offers three models so you can choose the arrangement that fits your practice, your client relationship, and your business goals.

MODEL 01
White Label
You take the credit. We do the work behind the scenes.

We prepare all PPM-related documents and handle filings entirely behind the scenes. You present the work to your client under your firm's name. Your client never needs to know PPM LAWYERS was involved.

How you earn: Bill your client directly at your own rates. Package and upsell our services within your own fee structure. You set the margin.
MODEL 02
Co-Counsel
You lead the relationship. We handle the PPM work.

You remain the lead attorney under your terms. PPM LAWYERS serves as co-counsel, working directly with your client on PPM-related legal matters only. You guide the process; we provide the securities law expertise.

How you earn: You maintain the primary relationship and either bill the client directly or arrange billing through us. You stay fully involved in the matter.
MODEL 03
Referral
Refer the client, earn a fee, keep the relationship.

Simply refer the client to us. We handle all PPM-related legal work independently. We do not offer general counsel services, we do not cross-sell, and we do not poach clients. We are happy to put that in writing.

How you earn: Referral fee of 10% and up, depending on the size of the matter and volume of matters referred. You keep the client. We only handle the PPM work.
Background

When does a client need a PPM?

A Private Placement Memorandum is a formal legal disclosure document required when a client raises money from investors in a transaction the SEC considers a sale of securities. This applies more broadly than most general practice attorneys realize.

Even if the offering is exempt from SEC registration under Regulation D, the client still needs to comply with federal and state securities laws, prepare proper disclosure documents, and file Form D and applicable state Blue Sky notices. That is where PPM LAWYERS comes in.

A real estate investor pools money from multiple passive investors to acquire an apartment complex or commercial property.
A startup wants to raise $500,000 from angel investors in exchange for convertible notes or equity.
A client launches a crypto, private equity, or real estate fund with outside limited partners.
A small business wants to raise money from friends and family who will not be involved in daily operations.

Common Questions

Everything attorneys ask us first.

What exactly is Keep The Client™?
A flexible solution for solo and small law firms who occasionally have clients needing a PPM or securities offering documents. We step in to handle the PPM work — discreetly on your behalf, collaboratively as co-counsel, or independently as a referral — so you retain the client relationship and generate revenue from work that might otherwise leave your practice.
How do I make money from this?
White Label: You bill your client directly and keep the margin. Co-Counsel: You maintain the primary relationship and either bill the client or let us handle it. Referral: We pay you a referral fee of 10% and up, depending on the size and volume of matters referred.
Can I stay involved in the matter if I refer it?
Yes. Even in Referral matters, you can remain as informed as you choose. We respect your client relationship and limit our scope strictly to PPM-related securities law services. We do not offer general counsel services and we do not cross-sell to your clients.
Is there a formal engagement process?
Yes. We prepare an engagement agreement based on the chosen model and follow a documented workflow: intake, strategy session, drafting, attorney review, and all required filings. Everything is structured to be ethical, efficient, and professional — and aligned with your bar obligations.
What if my client is not sure they need a PPM?
The free 15-minute consultation will answer that question directly. We will assess whether the client's situation triggers securities laws, which Reg D exemption applies, and what documents are required. No obligation, no charge, and you are welcome to join the call.
How quickly can PPM LAWYERS turn this around?
Our standard turnaround is 4 to 6 weeks from strategy session and receipt of all required information. This is substantially faster than most generalist firms handling PPM work alongside other matters. For clients on a deadline, expedited service is available.
